Bay View State Park Campground
Reviewed Jun. 8, 2022

Neglected infrastructure by the State

We stayed here on June 6, 2022. The trailer campsites are in a poor state of repair. Many have standing water and the ground is damp due to lack of gravel. Our picnic table had a partly melted top and was so unstable on the eroded slope it was not usable. The tent sites were very wet and sloping. It looks as if Washington State Parks and Recreation has totally neglected this park for several years. The campsites need ditching and a load of gravel each and levelling. The fees are expensive($40.00/night) plus a Discovery Pass, so it is definitely not worth it to stay at this park. 

It was disappointing to read so many great reviews which did not match the reality.

On the other hand, the campground host was very friendly and the restrooms were spotless, which was under her control. The poorly maintained infrastructure is not.

I will be writing to the State to voice my concerns.
